The discussion centers on a user experiencing voltage drops from a 12V battery powering a DC booster circuit, which outputs approximately 40V. The user seeks solutions to prolong battery life without voltage loss but lacks specific details about the battery's energy rating and the current draw from the circuit. Participants are requesting information about the battery's Amp-hour rating, the current being drawn, and the load specifications of the booster circuit. The conversation emphasizes the need for precise data to diagnose the issue effectively. Overall, understanding the battery's specifications and the circuit's demands is crucial for addressing the voltage drop problem.

I use a 12V battery to power a DC booster circuit. After just a moment, my battery's voltage decreased, causing the booster circuit to also decrease its voltage. Is there any way to make the battery last longer without losing voltage? Thanks

What is the energy rating of your battery (in Amp-hours)? What current do you measure out of the battery when it is driving the boost circuit? What is the load of the boost circuit (output voltage and current)?

The output voltage of the booster circuit is about 40V, and I don't know what the energy rating of the battery is (I use a GP 23A 12V battery).

Link to the datasheet please. What is the load? What is the output current?
